Why is su27sm not strengthened

Why is the su27sm not reinforced, it is obviously inferior to any aircraft of the same BR, its radar missile body is extremely inferior, I suggest to reduce the BR or strengthen the su27sm,Of course, if you don’t agree with my point of view, you can discuss with me, of course, the premise is that you really understand.

Can you provide some stuff that can be improved on the Su-27SM?

For example, I think we can strengthen the radar, the hms of su27sm is only 10km, but other aircraft of the same BR are 19km, and there are often bugs. I admit that r73 is very good but r77 is very poor. Some missiles such as mica, whose distance is not equal to the BR, do not have any advantage interval, and the body is the worst of the same BR. Of course, I don’t know how it will perform in the real world and maybe the real world has these problems too, so I think the easiest way to do it is to reduce the BR.

Its not inferior, I always do well in it, but it plays differently, the AMRAAM out ranges you, so if you try to play their game you loose, the R77 Pulls very hard so using it at low alts is how I do well in it.

But like how?
What could be added?
R-77-1 maybe?

Theres no bugs, theres nothing wrong with the HMD, and if you want more range, switch to IRST, lock them, ive locked people at 20+KM with it, then switch back to radar

Thats just not true, the R77 is great, but people try to use it like an AMRAAM, which it isnt, if you climb to high altitude and try to BVR joust with the F15s and F16s that are up there with their AMRAAMS, you will loose, dont go into a situation where you have a disadvantage

God no

1.want to play well indeed can play, but the same BR is the worst is also a fact
2. I think can
3. This won’t work on cloudy days.
4.The point is the same as the first one


What does this even mean?

If you can prove that the ACM on the Su-27SM had a range of 19 km or more then good. The R-77 does not have modeled proper drag(afaik)
So yeah. Maybe the flight model can be improved a bit
USSR air top tier is pretty solid but not meta. I used the MIG-29SMT to grind this event

I mean, if you want to play it seriously, you can play it well, but it’s also true that the BR of the aircraft is poor

I don’t know the reality, but maybe we can reduce the BR, like the previous version su27 in 12.7 and f15a in 12.3

The MiG-29SMT is one of my favourite top tier aircraft ATM, I hope they add one of the MiG-29’s with the 8 missile hardpoints at some point, I think its the MiG-29M but im not entirely sure

Fr. It’s a great plane even with its shit energy retention. And it has some great missiles.
I think the Mig-29 you are refering to is actually the MIG-35 but i might be wrong

So you say that the Su-27SM can be 13.3. Let’s say that it would be the same BR as the SMT.
-4 more missiles
-better maneuverability
That’s about it
Although it could go down to 13.3

Just got it

Most funny thing ever is using the su39 to grind it, only to realize the subsonic ground attacker at 11.7 I used to grind it has a vastly superior radar thats only useful for firing vhikirs split second or offbore IR launches, and crippling the FM even more.

Kyopo is a dream compared to whatever easy bake oven they put in this thing.

This is really not appropriate, maybe we can change the br for the other top tier aircraft, for example, keep the su27sm in 13.7 and the others in 14.0

Same problem as ground. Extreme compression at 11.3 and 11.7. We have extreme compression at 13.3 and 13.7.

Gaijin needs to decompress more.

I mean the R-77 is (as well as pretty much all of the ARH missiles are) modeled incorrectly, since it should experience less drag at supersonic speeds. I’d say the best thing is to push for all ARH missiles to be more accurately modeled rather than try and get other fixes added before the imo inevitable ARH missile fixes.

Better to compare for other 13.7 planes.
Theres still BAZ mashup, J-11A, F-15C(wheres my engines and hpfr tws)

the su-27 It is worse than the F-15A in almost every aspect (except radar and HMD missiles), it is at 13.3 while the F-15A is at 13.0, so yes, the su-27sm could go down to 13.3 very strongly together with the J-11A.
In itself the plane and the missile separately “are not bad”, but together they are a horrible combination.
I can adapt, ok I don’t have the radar or the missile to face in BVR and less with the 10KM ACM but I also don’t have the missile with TV like the MICA that surpasses me in acceleration and even has almost the same effective range (not to mention that it can be fired earlier due to the 19KM ACM)
Maybe having a missile like the MICA would be good the 10km ACM or like the AIM-120 to stay away which would also be difficult due to the radar and its slow update frequency.

F-15A and Su-27SM. I would take the SM any day of the week (to play at top tier). You might not have the performance of the F-15 BUT you have the R-77 and in comparison to the Sparrow… it is much better. If you don’t like the R-77, you have the R-27ET. That is a very good, fun missile too.
You have the R-27ER. The ER is kinda meh in BVR at top tier but it is good to have. You have the HMD that does a lot. Oh yeah and you have the R-73’s that, in my experience are better than the 9M’s
You have workable flight performance.
You might have wanted to say the F-15C and then i would be cool with it because the F-15C is much better than the Su-27SM
